It does not collect analytics, does not track your usage, and does not contact any external server on page load or on plugin activation. No data is transmitted unless you actively initiate image generation. #### External services This plugin relies on the following third-party APIs to generate images. You must review their terms before use. **Pollinations.ai** — used as the default image provider. When you generate an image using Pollinations.ai, your prompt and generation settings (model, image size) are sent to Pollinations servers. * Website: https://pollinations.ai * Terms of Service: https://pollinations.ai/terms * Privacy Policy: https://pollinations.ai/privacy **fal.ai** — optional, used only when you configure a fal.ai API key in Settings. When you generate an image using fal.ai, your prompt and generation settings are sent to fal.ai servers using your API key. * Website: https://fal.ai * Terms of Service: https://fal.ai/terms * Privacy Policy: https://fal.ai/privacy No data is sent to either service unless you actively click “Generate.” API keys are stored in your WordPress database and are transmitted directly to the respective provider over HTTPS. They are never shared with any other party. #### Source Code This plugin is open source.

The default image provider (Pollinations.ai) is completely free and requires no account or API key to start generating images. You get access to Flux models immediately. Linking a free Pollinations.ai account (takes about 30 seconds) unlocks all remaining models. fal.ai is an optional paid provider if you prefer to use your own account. ### Do I need to create an account anywhere? No account is required to start. You can generate images with Pollinations.ai and the Flux model without signing up for anything. If you want access to all AI models, linking a free Pollinations.ai account is recommended. fal.ai requires a paid account with billing credits. ### Where are generated images stored? Generated images are downloaded from the AI provider and saved directly to your WordPress Media Library. They are stored on your own server just like any other uploaded image. ### Who can generate images? Any logged-in WordPress user with the `upload_files` capability. This typically includes Authors, Editors, and Administrators. Subscribers and Contributors cannot generate images. ### Who can change plugin settings? Only users with the `manage_options` capability, which is Administrators by default. ### Is my fal.ai API key stored securely? Your API key is stored in the WordPress database using `update_option()`, the same mechanism WordPress uses for all plugin settings. It is transmitted only to fal. ai over HTTPS when you generate an image, and never sent to any other party. ### Can visitors or logged-out users generate images? No. Image generation requires a logged-in user with appropriate capabilities. The REST API endpoint is protected by a permission check and is not accessible publicly. ### Does this plugin affect my site’s front end? No. Media Lume is an admin-only plugin. It does not load any scripts or styles on the public-facing side of your site. ### What image sizes are supported? * Square HD — 1024 × 1024 px * Landscape 4:3 — 1024 × 768 px * Portrait 4:3 — 768 × 1024 px * Landscape 16:9 — 1280 × 720 px ### Does uninstalling the plugin delete my generated images? No. Images that have already been saved to your Media Library remain there after uninstalling. Only the plugin’s settings and configuration data are removed. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Media Lume — AI Image Generator” is open source software.
